Abstract

Sustainable development requires the transformation of societies into knowledge societies. ICTs are increasingly becoming repositories of knowledge and information, which has implications for the field of knowledge management. In this paper, we attempt to conduct a preliminary analysis to identify the factors that influence the sustainability of knowledge societies. A Knowledge Societies Index (KSI) was developed based on nine variables. Results highlight a strong correlation between the development of knowledge societies and sustainability. ICT plays a key role in the acquisition of knowledge. The capturing, storage and interpretation of this knowledge are all key areas of knowledge management.
